When we come back to the things that really matter,
then peace begins to settle into our lives like the golden sunlight sifting to a forest floor.  And somewhere deep down inside,
we know that simplier times are better times.

being a friend takes a lifetime.

Those who love are but one step from heaven
~James Russell Lowell

Where there is truth, there is love.
Where there islove, there is honesty.
These two together, make happiness.

In all the world there is no greater pleasure
than the loving heart that a family treasures.

with his merciful eyes
not what you are,
nor what you have been --

~Franklin D. Rooservelt~

To live your life in your own way,
to reach for the goals you have set for yourself,
To be the you that you want to be........
that is success.
